Good day, After years of no issue use of DCS, sometime the past few weeks the updater has failed to be able to run for more than a few minutes at a time before if stops and displays the error box " Server capacity may be limited at the moment. Please, try again later." These issues started with a stable release installed on win10 pro system with no system changes (other than Win updates) prior to malfunction. I have spent a few days free time in the forums here trying to locate a fix and have tried the possible fixes that found with no results. I have updated the updater, rebooted my router / modem, set exclusions within win firewall and anti-virus/malware software (Kaspersky), all with no change. In an effort to regain a functional install, I uninstalled (after backing up my config) and tried to reinstall the latest stable release without success. The installer stops in the same manner as the updater did as described above. I have also attempted installing the current open beta with the same results. The attached are the auto update log is from the latest attempts to install / update / repair the open beta. Seems I cannot attach a file. Keep getting a Failed to attach file due to unknown server error, Error -200 message when trying to attach my auto update log file. I have copied the last part of it into the body of this post below. I assume these two issues might be related. I apologize if I am re-posting an issue that has already been resolved. At this point I just want to get back to a functional install of DCS, stable release or open beta. Let me know if there are any questions I can answer or if there is more system / configuration information needed for troubleshooting. Thank you for the help.
